Has anyone had any success in using the Unix windows programs available from
him1.cc.umich.edu?  I have the program to run on the Atari and one recently
posted to him1 to run on the Unix side, but I haven't had any luck in
getting the two to talk together.  Maybe I'm not doing something right.
I start the Unix side program on the VAX, which prints '8%' on the screen
(a prompt I guess), and then I execute the Atari program from within my
comm program (Flash), and stall.  Any attempt to do anything from the Atari
results in a message on screen saying 'Unix Windows is not running'.
Am I missing the obvious?
